We plan and He plans! He called, and I answered
Let me be honest, I feel very vulnerable sharing this publicly, but God told me to so I am. I’ve experienced a tremendous amount of trauma in my life. At each turn, YES, God was there for me, but I didn’t understand how to work through the trauma, truly feel His love, and get my insides – my emotional health – healthy.
I’ve prayed, seen psychologists, psychiatrists, pastors, priests, pastoral counselors, read self-help books, listened to podcasts… you get the point. I tried everything I could think of but my emotional health was just poor. I’ve also had good but mostly spiritually unfulfilling jobs.
Then my mother died unexpectedly in August 2020 and that was the pivotal moment that changed my life. Her death was the springboard that enhanced my relationship with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. (I wrote it like that for a reason instead of just typing “God”)
Before, I always began my prayers with “God or Heavenly Father” and ended with “in the Name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit” or something very similar. I began fasting and holding frequent meditative night vigils. Slowly but surely my mind would quiet. One night, this verse came to me: The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still.” Exodus 14:14
I smiled and laughed a little. I asked God, “Do you know how hard it is to calm my mind?” At that time I could easily still my body but not my mind. That night, He reminded me that HE is fighting for me. HIM! The Most-High is not just on my team, He’s the captain. Not only that, He’s the president of my fanclub!
I’ve always heard and abstractly known that God loves me but this night was different, I intensely felt His love to my core. God illuminated my inner mind. I knew then what it meant to be chosen for the Kingdom of Light.
What I saw I am unable to form the correct words to explain. But the knowledge that came from it was clear: I needed to develop a true relationship with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit individually and collectively. So that is what I began doing.
Over the past two years now, I have been granted many Spiritual gifts. Ones I did not think were real to be truthful. The gifts of Claircognizance, Clairaudience, and Clairsentience have all been bestowed upon me.
God has chosen me to open this Christian Wellness Company so that I can facilitate healing of the soul. He showed me. He’s leading me and I’m following.
For my first product, 11 Botanicals Plant-Powered Slincare, I had to sift through copious amounts of regulations, laws, and statutes on the federal, state, and county levels for the formulation, manufacturing, labeling, selling, etc.
I literally couldn’t have come this far without the Holy Spirit guiding my footsteps. Opening this business was not my idea in the least. As a matter of fact, I just graduated as a Certified and Licensed Insurance Adjuster the same week God illuminated me!
PRAISE BE TO GOD! I prepared to officially launch on July 28th but I had posted locally and on social media for pre-orders, since I’m already licensed and in FDA, FTC, EPA, etc. compliance I just didn’t have the website done yet. ….AND my 11 Botanicals Plant-Powered Skincare FIRST BATCH SOLD OUT in the first week!
He has a plan for you. When He calls you, answer Him
Hold fast to God’s promises. Reach out to Him. Share with Him what’s in your heart. He already knows, don’t be afraid or ashamed. Go boldly before Him. You are His child. There’s no shocking God. Don’t let your fear or guilt stop you from building a real relationship with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. You have been reconciled with Christ’s blood. He loves you. He is calling your name. Answer Him.
I’m pouring my everything into this business, to serve God by serving you. Take a look around the website and see how I can help you. You can get spiritual support resources, participate in any number of programs and events, or purchase botanicals and more.
